He has the reputation of being a heavy hitter and a fair felder. To replace MaeLeod, the retireq captain, who is at Princeton studying aviation, Red ‘Wolverton is playing second base. Red can fleld, but is light with' the bat. C Bobby - Gross seems to have picked up considerably on his fielding, fid shortstop is a ‘hew task for him, his previous experience being obtained as an outfielder. Hallowell, another gardener, s playing regularly at third base and is showing up the Dbest of any of the talent there. Hans Erb appears to be the most de- pendable of the pitchers. Staff John- son is speedy, but wild, and Phil New- ton is fast rounding into form. None|f, of the men ean be rated as first class Merformers. Behind the 'bat, Tom Gammack has been called on to do. the bulk of the work. Swigert, an Ore- gonian is another fair catcher. Zach has passed up the breast plate for a place at. first base on the substitute nine. In the outfield, Evans, McCouch and | Ward have been playing regularly. | None of them are experienced, The freshmen last week defeated the var- sity, 4 to 3, and they are apt to re- peat this dose often this_spring, since 1921 has a fine lot of ball players,| some of whom are nifty batsmen as school players. | SATURDAY’S MARKE' Stock Offerings Embraced Every Branch of the List.

On March 2, 1761, just 157 years! ago, George Magfigs defeated Bill Stevens in_ 17 minutes near London. his was the first of the many fakes which have so often brought pugilism into disrepute. Steveus. nad.won the Uritish championship - by defeating ! Jack Slack on 1760. "SI ack had cap- | tured the honors from Broughton, the | “father of modern boxing.” Meggs was-a pupil of Slack and a match was arranged between the former anq Stevens. - Slack wagering $1,000 on his protege. In order to make a certain winning the bet, Slack bribed Stevens to quit for $250. Stevens lived up to hisk agreement, anq scarcely a blow had been struck | hen he laid down. The wise ones icked up a neat sum, but boxing re- not recover for many years. Stevens confessed and Slack and Meggs be- came outlaws from sporting society. Kramer Commissioner. Gov. Walter E. Edge of New Jersey, who is busily engaged in the task of selecting a_boxing commission to en force the Hurley law, announced yes- terday that 123 unselfish patriots had signified their willingness to serve the state without a penny of pay. The governor intimated that the picking of commissioners was a hard job, but he | hoped to name the men within a few | days. ,Two prominent candidates, | rank Kramer, the bicyclist and Claude Holgate, who has been promi- nent in amateur sports for 25 years, but is not active politically, recently kad interviews with the governor. | | 1 McGraw to Go Up in the Air.

Schalk, too, was seriously hurt and had lo be carried to the hotel. Should these valuable plavers be kept out of the game until after.the championship scason begins the world's -champions would travel a rocky:road. . * Carey to Lead Pirates. As Honus Wagner has retired, Max Carey will be the field captain of the I ear. Carey will receive £5,000 in salary for playing center field ang $500 extra for leading the players. But when it comes down to cases Carey will have little or nothing to possesses oratorical powers’ that will be used to convince umpires that they have made mistakes. Carey probably has been appointed captain in order to let him draw more money. He has made an annual Kick for in- creased salary even since he first be- came a Pirate. Fulton Plays Safe.

Pollock Preaches on How Victory ‘is Achieved. Rev. G. C. Pollock preached at.the First Congregational church . Stnday morning, taking for his text Il Samuel 30, 34: Ae his part is that goeth down to’ the battle, 5o shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff, they shall part alike. From this text,Rev. Mr. Pol- lock (brought out iclearly ‘the great truth that to no one person, however great and wise—to no one action, how- ever brililant or conspicuous, can be ascribed victory,” but to united effort, to some humble prayer or deed, is also due the victory. David and his men had ~ achieved a wonderful . victory. When they stood shoulder to shoulder in the heat of battle they were alike in earnest, but their deep seated greed was manifest when they refused to the two hundred who had tarried by the stuft all share in the spoils, claiming that all belonged to them. David over- ruled them and Jaid down a principle that was adopted ever afterwards as a law in Israel. ‘The two hundred be- longed to the same' army, all bound together in Joyalty to the same flag, each party indispensable to the vie- tary. The same principle runs through God’s great army of workers, the help rendered by the unnoticed, —some prayer offered in secret, we do not know in this world of ours who is the {love to think of this passage of my (texh O God make me useful, is the prayer of my heart.
